erica’s things

Following some good advice and watching BoJack Horseman. Maybe this’ll be the thing that hooks me on the cartoons-for-grown-ups genre?
Biting into my first—and definitely not my last—tapioca crepe at OCA in NYC’s Nolita. I vote for the #4 with grilled pineapple (!!!) and feta.
Committing to this Patagonia sports bra for low/medium-impact fitnessing—it’s sleek but also, importantly, substantial.
Eating way more than my fair share of this microwave Hawaiian Hurricane Popcorn, a friend’s contribution to a snacky dinner gossipfest.

Having a "we live in the future" moment re: the discovery of sunglasses for the colorblind. Even if you don’t need them yourself, the videos of people using them for the first time are pretty dang heartwarming.
Eating an entire meal’s worth of fresh, gooey raisin-walnut bread from Metropolitan Bakery in Philly. The perfectly crunchy crust and spots of burnt, caramelized raisins are almost worth the price of an Amtrak ticket.
Smearing manuka honey on my nose and tap-tap-tapping away at it for an all-natural version of a blackhead-reducing Bioré strip—a tip I picked up from Rachel Winard, the skincare genius behind the deodorant we can barely keep in stock.
Going halfsies—or even one-fifthsies—with lots of ease and little awkwardness thanks to Splitwise, which does all the math and nagging for you.

Setting aside a Sunday afternoon to binge the Emmy-nominated Her Story, a show about trans women's dating lives written, acted, and directed by trans women. Discovered by @nadarine.
Having a close shave—and that's a good thing—with this super classy, super affordable razor. Discovered by Erica's uncle Orest!

Interrogating our production and marketing assistant Sally about her amazing pants, only to find they’re made by our pals at Loup, who whipped them up for us in a rich shade of navy.
